Someone Made A 'Home Alone' Sequel Trailer With 'Righteous Gemstones' Footage—And It's So Good

YouTube user @VJ4rawr2 shared the homemade trailer entitled 'Home Alone 3: Kevin's Revenge,' starring an adult Kevin McCallister, and the footage actually works surprisingly well—with the help of some CGI technology, of course.

Fans are going bonkers over a parody trailer of a Home Alonesequel using select clips from HBO's comedy-drama The Righteous Gemstones.

Home Alone featured then-child actor Macaulay Culkin in his breakout role as Kevin McCallister, a boy who finds himself defending himself from a pair of witless robbers in his suburban home after his family accidentally leaves him behind en route for a Paris Christmas vacation.


The 1990 film became an instant classic and even spawned a sequel, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York,in 1992.

While there hasn't been any talk of Culkin returning for a third sequel, the perfect gift manifested in the form of a fake Home Alone 3: Kevin's Revenge trailer just in time for the holiday season.

The fan-made trailer was stitched together using footage from the Home Alone reboot—2021's Home Sweet Home Alone—on Disney+ and clips from Culkin's appearance in two episodes from the second season of The Righteous Gemstones in which he played Harmon Freeman.

At first glance, it appears to be the real deal. But it's not.

Unlike Kevin, Culkin's Gemstones character, Harmon Freeman, is intentionally abandoned in childhood by his father, Baby Billy Freeman, played by Walton Goggins.

Harmon's brooding and unresolved bitterness is evident and adds more gravitas to the repurposed, grown Home Alone character from the fake trailer.

In the clip, a much older Kevin finds himself in a similar predicament when the Wet Bandits who he faced off against as a child are released from prison.

Expected mayhem ensues—but this time, a more vengeful Kevin ups the ante and prepares to end the Wet Bandits for good.

Fans were here for Kevin 2.0.


The trailer prompted demand for a real movie to be made, and who can blame them?




Though the trailer is fake, the Home Alone franchise does have a third movie that was released in 1997 without Culkin reprising the character.

Home Alone 3 centered on an eight-year-old boy named Alex Pruitt, who protects his home from international criminals.

Successive films in the franchise include three TV movies, including, Home Alone 4 (2002), Home Alone: The Holiday Heist (2012), and Home Sweet Home Alone (2021)—all of which respectively feature a new protagonist.

Perhaps it's time for Kevin to gear up once more and show the Wet Bandits who's boss, one last time.

Why not give the fans what they want?

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals!
